The BEST Hair Loss Treatment I've Seen (Dermatologist)
ฝัง
- เผยแพร่เมื่อ 17 มิ.ย. 2024
- I'm a dermatologist and this new hair loss treatment is the BEST treatment we have EVER had in my opinion. It's still early in the process, but early clinical trials and systematic reviews are showing that oral minoxidil can be incredibly effective when it comes to treating multiple different types of hair loss. If you're someone wondering:
- What's the best treatment for male pattern hair loss?
- What's the best treatment for female pattern hair loss?
- What's the best treatment for hair shedding?
- Does oral minoxidil work as a hair loss treatment?
This video is going to answer ALL of your questions. In it, I'm going to discuss what minoxidil is, why oral minoxidil is better than topical minoxidil (e.g. Rogaine, Regaine), show you some before and after oral minoxidil photos, discuss what the side effects are of oral minoxidil, tell you who should and shouldn't be using oral minoxidil, and tell you how to get your hands on oral minoxidil.

But they can't get a prescription from the A I - the crux of the issue is that MOST doctors will not prescribe the best because they want the extra co-payments. Wasting thr patients time for money.
Thank you for doing videos that are not sponsored! Sometimes when I see that a video is sponsored, I don't watch it because it is more likely just a paid commercial--and not an actual informative unbiased opinion. It is appreciated!! 🙂
Love watching your video, there is a positive vibe in you. And also very informative
So generous of you to share this knowledge. Thank you
🙌🏼
Wow, Thanks for the video, Dr. Syed! I've never had a problem with hair loss, but I'll keep this in mind if it ever happens!
I'm 59 and have been taking 2.5mg of oral minoxidil, and the same dosage of finasteride (one pill) via my dermatologist for about a year now. I had a hair transplant about a decade ago as I was really beginning to thin. I also derma roll every other week. Fast forward to yesterday and I was on a Zoom call with a buddy of 30 years and he says to me, as he's stroking the only strand of hair left on the top of his head, "Man, how do you keep your full head of hair?" I told him, "it takes persistence, consistency, and oral minoxidil/finasteride--in the pill form.
HI Steve, did your hair transplant last for long? FUE treatment?
Finasteride is a horrible drug to take
And a lot of side effects, did you tell him?
@@Omer698noo
Why r u saying that please reply
My derm just switched me from topical to oral minoxidil and I've been taxing finasteride. I see a difference even though it's been only a couple of months
I got a hair transplant back in October, the best decision ever
Great review doc!
Trust me - combine oral low-dose minoxidil and Finasteride and the result is unbelievable. My dermatologist was pessimistic but wrote the prescriptions. Two months later I went in for a follow-up and she was stunned. My hair has grown back all over.
I’ve had great results with that combo in my patients too - although 2 months is an incredibly fast timeline. Good for you!!
what dosages???
What dosage of each?
@@designedbynoir7627 finasteride 1mg, oral minox 1.25-2.5mg
How small of a dose are we talking?
Finally hair care video from you
Wow, good new insight👌🏻
very informative usama your videos made me less worried about bullshit marketing and real skin treatments and ingredients
thank you!
Great video Syed. Can you do one on premature hair graying. Im struggling with it.
And well done on your research. You're a class act doctor. Thinking outside the box. Doing your own tests. Brilliant stuff. Can we read the paper soon?
This is very high quality video! I love it, you keep so real! Baby Zak will ask for his shares in the future 🤣 thank you for sharing and May Allah rewards you for that
hahaa ahh thank you so much! And don’t give him ideas 😂
Perfectly produced video. Pretty sure I'm in love with this Doctor after watching this. Now , as for Minoxidil oral.. What is the recommended dose for men? I'm reading conflicting reports that suggest 1mg is not enough and it needs to be more like 5mg oral for men. Dr Usama thoughts?
My dermatologist prescribed oral minoxidil. I have no side effects.
It is successfully regrowing my scalp hair. I have been on it over a year.
Praise Abba Father God. It's answered prayers!
what dosage?
Dose?
APTTMH 🙌🏾🙌🏾🙌🏾❣️
So happy for you, praise Abba Father.
@@GJG_3 2.5 mg
great video, thanks for sharing! 2 questions maybe you can talk about: 1.] efficacy of sublingual vs oral (literally at 16 weeks of one year of 2.5mg minoxidil tab - but i have been putting it under my tongue till completely absorbed with out swallowing, also doing same with 1mg finasteride tab - avg about 15mins a tab). 2.] Caffeine as a dht blocker; been stacking that with the tabs for 14 weeks. the pure caffeine is mixed with purified water at 5mg/100ml (or 0.05mg/ml for daily use). very easy and extremely cheap to do yourself. the research (nih, etc.) i have read says it is highly absorbed directly at the follicle and is a substantial dht blocker with no noticeable systemic effects. been caffeine free for a couple of decades and have had no systemic effects. (aware there are shampoos but don't shampoo every day and doing topical is a quick couple of minutes once a day).
Thank you doctor, what do you think about using topical minoxidil, plus oral minoxidil, at a dose of 2.5 mg, instead of increasing the dose to 5 mg orally? And does the oral minoxidil affect the entire scalp, or more the upper part?
6:10 aww Masallah Zak's so cute!❤️
You and Shirin will be the best parents!
inshAllah!! Keep us in your duahs
@@usamasyed inshallah I will!
This sounds very promising, especially if it can also help CCCA! Thank you!
Will likely be used alongside anti-inflammatory treatments like steroid injections, oral doxycycline or oral hydroxychloroquine
Thank you for this video! Can you do a video on low light laser light therapies for hair loss?
Thank you. You are the best.
what are your opinions on eyebrow regrowth serums like grandebrow and ordianry peptide brow serum? i have trichotillomania and i was wondering if they are worth purchasing
You won a like because the dermatologist realistic picture!!!
I'm eagerly waiting for a video on face pigmentation.. I have pigmentation on my cheeks and nose.. It's not that prominent but I'm concerned it may get worse..I don't leave my house I work from home and still I do take care of my skin I moisturize frequently and I use spf also... Please make a video or please reply what should I do?
Your Baby appearing 🤩 - SO Cute!!
Hello , dr usama what do you think of collagen peptides? There seems to be a lot of discussion lately on how they can benefit your skin,hair etc.
Oral minoxidil has been around for years, you could get it perscribed off label for years. This stuff works so much better as oral, plus it turns you into a hairy walrus, growing hair you never thought was possible. Shoulders? Check, Back check, fingers, check, chest hair up to adams apple? Check. Top of my head where i need it.. kinda
I mentioned I’ve used it off label for 5 years in this video. But it’s new to the mainstream.
Scary 😅
Would you recommend topical (liquid or foam) minoxidil over oral minoxidil, considering your verdict that it "kinda" works?
Yea seems like you’re saying it works everywhere but your head lol
Does it grow your beard?
Just great! 🎉 Please 1 video on how to cure “seborrheic dermatitis on scalp”. Would be helpful. Thanks.
I've been taking oral minoxidil for hair loss and it's been working great. I get compliments on how thick my hair is. The only side effect I have experienced has been hair growing every where.
That's the catch after taking biotin or any other hair growing supplements.
@@thorc.8571
Although biotin doesn't stop DHT
But I guess extra hair growth is manageable as I have started with 2.5 mg recently
Another sponsored comment.
@judex3226 I don't even know why I need to prove that I receive no benefit by commenting about my experience. Whether you believe me or not has 0 impact on the quality of my life. Bye.
Thanks for this video Dr! What to do for water retention that will happen bcz of Oral minoxidil
Thank you for this informative video. I have a question: I've been on topical (foam version) minoxidil for 18 months and thinking of switching to oral minoxidil since it's cheaper and more practical. What dose of oral minoxidil best correspond to 5 mg topical minoxidil? I want minimal shedding, and I imagine that the more the two doses correspond the less disruption and the smoother the transition will be. Thanks.
1mg of oral minox is equivalent to 5 mg of topical
What about oral skin care products in general, like vitamin c or hyaluronic acid, is there much of a difference?
It would be great if you make a video on cleanser and moisturizer for both oily skin and dry skin.
Soap and Coconut oil. Just saved your skin from ageing faster using high street cosmetic temporary chemicals that are designed for you to need more of their product by drying out the skin over time.
Everything cosmetic has consequences
Shampoo = scalp & hair follicle damage
Whiteneing toothpaste = erodes enamel
moisturizer/soaps = actually is designed to dry skin, so you need you next purchase faster or their other "skin repair" products later
Stick to 100% organic only soaps and you will go back to having 15 year old skin in your 30s/40s. Trust me I am an A+ science student
What do you recommend for fixing a patchy and thin beard? Oral or topical minoxidil? Or should you even take minoxidil in the first place?
How do u get clear glowing skin on the face? Cucumbers on the face? Carrots?
Do you get dark rings around the eyes with oral as you do with topical?
What is the minimum effective dose with max results and absence of side effects?
great video
Hello doctor.please can u make video on everything about isotretinoin..love ur videos.❤
It’s very high up on my list! An important topic!
I've been taking it in earnest for three months now after I read the article in the New York Times last year... I've seen some improvement I am yet to see the marvelous effects, my dermatologist says it will take at least 6 months but I am happy.
I however have noticed when I take it I wake up with less anxiety and the days çi forget to take it I wake up more anxious which makes me wonder if my anxiety has something to do with my heart? (astounded emoji)
Lovely video as always! Thanks!
6-9 months is usually a good window to see improvement! There are also options to increase the dose that you can discuss with your provider if the starter dose isn’t doing the trick
are you only taking minoxidil alone or with finestaride??
@@wasifkareem6441 well he checked my skull and saw my folicules were active so he asked me for a lot of blood work and then he prescribed minoxidil, dutasteride and vitamin d, in my case... I highly recommend you consult with your dermatologist before taking anything! Good Luck!
Hi Dr Usama, what dosage of oral minoxidil would you recommend for hair loss?
I don't make any specific recommendations, it's best to discuss with your own doctor. But the most commonly studied protocol at the moment is 1.25mg orally daily.
Whats a good brand of oral minoxidil?
Hii doctor i have a doubt. Can i use a hair serum in combination with oral minoxidil i am about to start the oral minoxidil.. but i guess serums and oils in combination would work better can u give the clarification please 😊
I have been using the tablets for 3 months now!
Thanks a lot doctor, Could you also tell us what is the low does as per your experience. Asking this because there are many people who would go to buy oral minoxidil now with or without checking with a proper doctor or may be misled to use a higher does of minoxidil as safe does, so, if you can give your opinion stating any higher then this many mg a day is bad then we would know where to stop no matter what.
Generally most studies begin with 1.25mg per day, but always discuss with your own doctor etc.
It is definitely great for me. It made my beard finally connect. Hopefully it will help my FUE procedure. Im only 2 months in and haven't seen my hair grow much if at all. It felt like there was minimal growth. The lighting in my bathroom isn't the best but I see a slight difference
2-4 months is the ugly duckling phase for FUE. Hang in there. From 6-12 months your FUE hair should just get better and better.. especially if combined with oral minoxidil.
In the name of my bold head, I just subscribed.
Welcome, bold head!
😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂
Some questions:
1. How often does one take it? Every day, every other day, once a week?
2. What dosage do you typically recommend?
3. Does it work for androgenic alopecia?
4. How long does it take to show results?
Taken daily at 2.5 mg most commonly. You should expect to see results in 6-9 months.
Have you seen topical minoxidil in combination with tretinoin? It has an enzyme that helps us convert the minoxidil into minoxidil sulfate, so it's almost an oral minoxidil without the downsides.
Hi, is there a product that includes both minoxidil and tretinoin? or do you use 2 separate products? can you include the names of such products please? Thank you!
@@softbee8265 I don't know if such a product exists on the market. I get it from a compounding pharmacy for pretty cheap where I live (Brazil).
If you are interested in doing that, this is the formula I developed based on my research:
- 20% glycerin
- 10% oleic acid
- 10% ethanol
- 10% castor oil
- 10% rosemary oil
- 5% minoxidil
- 5% aloe vera
- 2% ketoconazole
- 0.75% adenosine
- 0.5% dutasteride
- 0.1% tretinoin
- 0.1% saw palmetto
- Rest of water (26.55%)
Not all of these are necessary, but they will help with androgenetic alopecia even further, especially dutasteride, based on the most up to date research the amount of it that goes systemic isn't enough to get you any side effects, and it still works.
I have confirmed this evidence anecdotally too on my brother that gets ed on finasteride and dutasteride orally, but not from this formulation.
Do you recommend derma rolling for hair shedding/loss? Would love a video on that topic. Also for women they'd have to stop the oral minox when trying to get pregnant and through pregnancy right? Would stopping it also cause shedding and loss of new growth as it does with topical?
Yes after stopping it u will face excessive hairfall
Could also stack topical minoxidil with tretinoin and derma rolling. Both individually has shown to help non responders so use all three. Since the effectiveness is higher, lower doses can be used and thus lower side effects from minox.
Yep!
@@usamasyed Just thought of this. What if the derma rolling could signal the oral minoxidil where to go? Perhaps tret could work this way, but I think tret combines with minox to make something else that's more potent. At first glance, using tret and oral minox would not do anything. But derma rolling plus oral minox sounds interesting.
Hi, is there a product that includes both minoxidil and tretinoin? or do you use 2 separate products? can you include the names of such products please? Thank you!
@softbee8265 I believe its possible but rare to find both together. I haven't used such a product. Tret is usually by prescription, but retinol (a step behind in the conversion process) can be used.
I've used Kirkland liquid minox and cerave retinol light blue. Currently using Davv Hair Serum foam minox and a generic amazon retinol serum.
Foam is more water based and can take the shape of a beard away after blowing drying. So I have to do a touch up blow dry for 30 seconds to reshape my longer beard (not ideal but FYI).
Apply tret/retinol first then minox. Apply half the amount of minox as the suggested amount is for the entire head. The head surface is much greater than the beard area. I apply it morning, night, morning then skip night. The skip I do the derma rolling and apply retinol only.
Derma rolling will ruin your scalp if you want a hair transplant
could you please do a video about micro needling, specially around at home rollers with 5mm long needles
You should add Propecia. The combination of the two works.
Hi, could you please make a video about rosacea and it's treatments? Would be great.
it's going to be my next video!
Carnivore diet helps with rosacea, something you eating give you inflammation.
For how much time in years do you think minoxidil is safe
Please tell us the most suitable dose for male and female patients..

Dear Doctor,
I have been diagnosed with FPHL grade 2 and I have been on oral finasteride 2.5mg (for 1 year) and oral Minoxidil (started with 0.0625 for 2 weeks, 1.25 for 2 weeks and 2.5mg for 9.5 months). I have seen increased hair shedding for about 8 months, and it continues. (At the same time as I started full dose Minoxidil ie. 2.5mg, I got A cell PRP also done). Will the hair shedding EVER reduce or stop? Will increasing or reducing the dose of Minodixil help to reduce hair shedding? Is the hair shedding seen with Minodixil use proportional to the dose? So far I have had no side effects from Minodixil with 2.5mg for 9 months.
Actually, my hair fell out with the bulbs and clogged the drain. Even before I started the treatment it used to come out in clumps. I read that if the hair come out in clumps it cannot be andogenetic alopecia or FPHL. When I asked my doctor he said that it could also have a component of Telogen Effluvium. Pls, advice what should I do?
Add Tretionin and topical Minoxidil to your routine and for sure microneedling 1/w (24h before applying the Minoxidil).
Don't forget that vitamin D for hair growth should be double the recommended minimum amount in your blood.
Good luck.
Dr Usama, would you say oral minoxidil works better than PRP? From the research I saw and testimony I heard, PRP is the most effective. If so, is the gap between them big or small? Taking medication for some of us can be a bit scary with the adverse side-effects. Thanks
I believe oral minoxidil works far better than PRP
PRP is expensive and it doesn't last that long , You will be still needing treatment to maintain the results (which I've known from one of my friend who has done PRP)
@@bbb9012wouldn't you think that using oral minoxidil and finasteride would help keep the results of the PRP .I had stem cell injections a similar procedure done in Kentucky ,but I say I got much better results from oral minoxidil and finasteride, but it took a while
@@usamasyed yes, but does oral minoxidil work better than topical minoxidil for Women? or will I become Chewbacca?
I wonder if using oral minoxidil for a year or two until I'm satisfied with the results, then switching to topical minoxidil or Procapil for maintenance, would it be effective? Will it preserve the hair I grow from the oral tablets?
As someone with pcos, I would like to try minoxidil
Dr Syed, have you ever had a patient of yours on Finasteride actually exhibit sexual dysfunction as a side effect or is it blown out of proportion?
Can you please tell what's cause of temporal hairloss in females apart from traction alopecia because i don't do tight hairstyles but i have temporal hair thinning and no regrowth has been seen from past 2/3 years
I also tried topical steroid cream for 6 months then used 2% minoxidil once daily for 5/6 months, no growth seen
Dr Usama Syed can I use oral minoxidil and get the results I want and then stop oral minoxidil and use topical minoxidil to maintain the results
I'm in my 50s now and my hair is starting to recede. I'm now very interested in obtaining oral minoxidil but does it only work around the crown? The reason for asking is because many years ago when I started to get paranoid because I noticed my hairline was slightly getting thinner, I looked into the topical minoxidil but many said that if it worked, it would only be generally around the crown. I'd really appreciate anybody sharing their experience with this and let me know if they've found using it worth it.
What do you suggest if you're current using topical minoxidil and finastiride ? Can you continue use of topical and take oral as well ? I also see Hims is offered in a chewable oral + finastirde, thoughts ?
You can combine both, but always discuss with your local doctor etc.
LOVE the BABY!!!!
Can it be inject right to the scalp?
Thank you

@usamasyed do you have any tips for kids skincare?
I’m on 5 mg oral Minoxidil, 2.5 morning and night for the past two years with exceptional results. It’s the only treatment which I could say really works. No side effects other than more hair. Start small and build dose to avoid adema.
That's great. Just curious but why not 5mg one time a day? What made you decide 2.5mg twice a day?
Due to the short half life of minoxidil which is 4.2 hrs. To keep a more consistent steady state in my system. Topical is also recommended twice a day as well.
@@eric78730after how many month have you had maximal result? How often do you have mass sheds on it? Where was the most improvement- front or top? Were you on topical before switching to oral?
@@eric78730but isn't this dependency on daily pills tiresome?
Also do you take something else as well like finasteride or duasteride? I'm assuming you have male pattern baldness and that is because of DHT. Also which all places grow hair apart from scalp
Does it's efficacy decrease over time ? Are you still seeing good effects ?
Is this good for eyebrows
If im on 200mg spironolactone, does it prevent body hair growth from oral minoxidil. I'm scared to take OM because I don't want body hair
Hello, do a video on Elemis products
If they are worth the price tag and or effective
My hair loss routine atm has been topical dutasteride and topical minoxidil for the past 6 months. I havnt really got the results im after but still gotta keep with it for some more time. I went with topic dut because i was concerned with the side effects of oral fin an dut but im unsure how effective topical dut has been for me yet. I may look to go onto the low dose of oral minoxidil instead of topical as you have said here. Do you have much studies on topical dutasteride effectiveness? I assume people need to stay on some form of dht blocker along with the minoxidil?
if you don't get result, you should use Fanistride and topical minoxidil as i have used both at same time and got good results in 6 months.

How much low dose oral minoxidil is fine to consume?
I was using topical 5 percent minoxidil twice daily (androgenic alopecia) for about 15 or 20 years with LOTS of success, but then it seemed to stop working as well. It still worked, but not as much hair growth and fullness as before. Is it common for the topical to stop working after 15 or 20 years? Or could it have been the fact that I am older (57 years old)?
You need a good dht blocker such as finasteride or dutasteride, otherwise your hair loss will continue progressing, do you use one of those with Minoxidil ?
No, I don't. Good to know! @@sicilienz
Dr usama, I have some questions:
1. How well does the oral form work compared with the topical form/the topical form combined with derma rolling?
2. How good is it in stimulating further (new) hair growth compared when switched to oral form from topical form?
3. Can it work against/make laser hair removal less effective?
4. Could a retinoid tretinoin/adapelene help with my androgenic alopecia?
Thanks a lot and much love from Japan.
I have used Topical minoxidil on my head and it surely does work, but when you use as medicine it will increase your blood pressure. Topical minoxidil is safer than tablet.
Retinoids can cause hairfall also
@@javaidnasir6633Safer but not nearly as effective as the oral.
If you take oral minoxidil do you have to take it the rest of your life because people say if you start using the oil you can never go back or you’ll go bald
One week ago, I began using oral Minoxidil 2.5mg daily. I am increasing my dosage to 5mg. I am also using Dutasteride 0.5mg daily and applying topical Minoxidil every night. I use a 05mm derma roller once every week. I will post an update in three months. I am a Norwood 6.
Yes, please keep us posted. And Good luck👍🏻🍀🍀 🍀🍀
Looking forward to your update 😉
A quick update: I started Dutasteride on November 4th. I started microneedling with a 0.5mm derma roller and applying topical Minoxidil on November 12th. I started oral Minoxidil on December 1st. On December 26th, 2023, my progress thus far is minimal. There are new but very fine hairs covering my scalp. They are barely visible, but I can feel them when I swipe my hand across my scalp. My crown area is still hairless.
@@nicholasjolt6200 Thank you for the update Nicolas! Keep them coming buddy and good luck with the progress! I too am on Minoxidil. I also take Finasteride but also take Biotin daily. Been doing this for over a year now but I do need to get on the dermarolling. I also need to research Dutasteride as I don't know too much about it. In January I'm also going to be starting PRP, so I'll keep you updated with that, and if it has helped at all
Update please
Does oral minoxidil make the hair come back thats already been lasered off?
Any ways to microinfuse Minoxidil into hair follicles?
My dermatologist prescribed me 1 mg of oral Minoxidil. I used for 3 month 2% minoxidil and for 4 month topical minoxidil at 5%. I was bored to use Always a topical and to wash my hair every time, so i asked for oral min. Now i'd like to know if oral minoxidil will make a big hair sheding for all my hairs. I usually applyed topical min only in the part where i was balding, now with oral all the hair follicles will recive minoxidil so all the hair phase will syncronize and they will fall all in the same time?
Ive been on finasteride for almost twenty years (since i was 19, im 36 now) and topical minoxidil for probably 5, and my hairline is fairly stabilized. Do you think there would still be a benefkt to adding oral minoxidil?
if you're happy with where you're at, no need to rock the boat! If you're ever not, it's worth considering!
how bro didnt you get any sides i m 19 and when i started fin i exp huge sides i started with 5 mg and sometimes i take 2 my beard growth stopeed and i quit fin whats your view on this you look experienced
Oral minox has a lot of dangers
5mg is way too much for hair loss. Do not take more than 1mg, if you still have side effects after some months, try smaller doses. It has been proven that Fin can have good effects on hair loss even with just 0,2mg daily.
Hello
i have scalp psoriasis
so i want use minixodil topical solution
it's possible
plz response

Yes. And I was so pissed off when he said that too, the guy’s an idiot for tricking us like that
How about cetirizine please? The anti inflammatory medicine also showing hair growth benefits and people are talking about it.
For low dose oral minoxidil, if I weight around 120 lbs. Could I further reduce the dosage please? Like dogs, they are dose according to weight 😆 TIA
I personally would wait for oral minoxidil to be approved by the FDA for hair loss first, maybe even for over the counter use like topical minoxidil (so researchers need to get moving on official clinical studies to get FDA approval). Though, both have the unfortunate but common requirement that you have to keep taking the medication as maintenance. This is an unfortunate reality for many medications, like anti-depressants (which I take). In an ideal world, a treatment would be able to cure an ailment or alleviate the ailment for a significantly long period of time after the course of treatment is complete, but we don't have that ideal (at least not in the present day, who knows about the future), and many treatments merely control an ailment and require continuing treatment for maintenance.
As a male bodied person who would really like to have less hair on my body (I have way too much, but shaving is too short term and uncomfortable, and waxing is too expensive and painful especially for only 3 to 6 weeks), I would be nervous about that increased body and facial hair growth side effect.
I personally avoid laser hair removal and electrolysis as options due to their cost and their permanence (I know laser is not permanent hair removal, just permanent hair reduction), because as someone who is gender fluid I never know if, when, or where I may or may not want to regrow hair, and I have always had an aversion to things that are permanent and irreversible (now if only dermatologists could invent a hair removal method that is permanent, or semi-permanent, or very long lasting, but also reversible, cheap, quick, available for home self-use, and painless or nearly painless, that would be great). I wonder if oral minoxidil would be helpful to reverse permanent or semi-permanent hair removal methods for those who have regret or simply want to regrow hair they have removed before.
I wouldn't trust anything the FDA does or says. It supports Big Pharma. Dangerous opiate drugs like Oxycontin and Fentanyl have been approved by the FDA, but those drugs have also been responsible for thousands of deaths. Meanwhile, the FDA has been trying to ban Kratom, a natural, safe herb that people use to come off of dangerous opiates. Just because something is approved by the FDA doesn't mean it's safe.
First of all thank you so much ❤❤for this video. I recently decided to shave my head due to ongoing hair loss. 😢😢you tell please any brand of oral minoxidil that are popular and easily available
as mentioned in the video, unfortunately it's not over the counter and easily available! it's prescription only, so you'll need to speak to a local doctor about it
Ok Dr
I want to ask what minoxidil pill you recommend what brand i mean is good?i use rosemary water and i see some difference i just spay in to my hair.please reply thank you
After 4 months of 1.25 mg oral minoxidil daily, my bald spot shrunk from 6” diameter to only 1.5” diameter. Continuing to use daily!!
What about the heart side effects on people that exercise on a daily basis
How does oral minoxidil compared to finestaride?
what about for people that exercise regularly - cardio - preworkout etc - any possible dangers with high intensity workouts and heart rate?
i think oral dutasteride (avodart) 0,5mg is a truly effective treatment to maintain hair and initiate regrowth , most of people who took it had good results , what is your opinion about it
I like that too: think the 2 together will be a very common combo
hey doctor usama syed what is your hair loss protocol?
I been taking oral minoxidil for 2 months, how long do I see results? And also do I have to combine finastride also????
Takes 4-6 months at least
